1.0 Known problems

1.1 Profiling requires libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 patch

Before you can collect profiling data, Agent Controller must be running on the machine from which you intend to collect the data.

On RedHat Linux machines, Agent Controller requires the libstdc++.so patch libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3.

1.2 Mismatched location of "libjvm.sl" on HP-UX causes Leak Analysis to fail

When using the "Memory Leak Analysis - Manual heap dumps" or "Memory Leak Analysis - Timed heap dumps" profiling feature on an application running on HP-UX, you may see the following error dialog:

 "Leak Analysis validation failed. Check that the Agent Controller is running" 

If this happens when Agent Controller is already running on the target HP-UX host, search the config/servicelog.log in your HP-UX Agent Controller installation directory for a warning message with the text:

 "Could not create file server because JVM could not be created" 

This problem can occur when using Memory Leak Analysis with the HP JVM on PA-RISC 2.0 hosts. To work around the problem, edit the config/serviceconfig.xml in your HP-UX Agent Controller installation directory. Locate the line that begins "<AgentControllerConfiguration". Within this line, locate the path to libjvm.sl. For example, if your JRE is installed in /opt/java1.4, you would see:

 <AgentControllerConfiguration activeConfiguration="default" filePort="10005" jvm=/opt/java1.4/jre/lib/PA_RISC/server/libjvm.sl" ... 

Modify the path to libjvm.sl to refer to your_jre/jre/lib/PA_RISC2.0 instead of PA_RISC. The above example would become:

 <AgentControllerConfiguration activeConfiguration="default" filePort="10005" jvm=/opt/java1.4/jre/lib/PA_RISC2.0/server/libjvm.sl" ... 

Save your changes, then stop and restart Agent Controller on your HP-UX host. If the file server creation warning does not recur in your servicelog.log, Leak Analysis should now work properly.

Note: If you reconfigure your HP-UX Agent Controller by running SetConfig.sh, serviceconfig.xml will be overwritten and you will need to make this modification again.
